The prerequisites to understand the code is to know the basic concepts of GameMaker and its GML language. So if you don't have this knowledge I advice you to visit the http://www.yoyogames.com/ site and read the basic documentation. GameMaker is a powerful tool to make 2D games for many platforms: Windows, Mac, Android, iOS ..... Here it is what we will see if you execute the GameMaker project attached to this post:

In the YOYGAMES site you can find all informations you need about this great tool. Make a game is not an easy task, in particular without any advanced tool. GameMaker is designed to be a one-stop tool for single and small teams of game developers. I'm not an expert of GameMaker but I have read articles and books, so I would to like to share my knowledge. My target for next post is to start the tutorial for a 2D Platform using GameMaker.

Push the blocks is a logic game. You have to push the blocks and move them in the yellow area. The little robot can only push a single block and if you make a mistake you have to restart the level. In this game is important to use your mind and logic before any movement.

Guide the little archaeologist in his adventures through egypt world, ice world and castle world. Be careful before any movement,use your eyes and logic, you will find enemies(sometimes they will follow you...), blocks in movement that change their direction when you jump on them, water and fire. Every time you will lose a life your score will be decreased. Use movable blocks and pick up treasures while avoid hazards. Make the best score and save it in online leaderboard!
